Abstract

The aims of this study were to evaluate the utility of therapeutic assessment (therapeutic assessment) as a brief intervention to target reduction in A1C levels and to assess the levels of personality functioning and broad trait domains described in the DSM-5 Alternative Model for Personality Disorders in a sample of patients with Type 2 diabetes and their relationship to A1C levels at baseline and follow-up. Participants (n = 99) were recruited from a primary care office and provided feedback on how their personality functioning and pathological personality traits might influence their diabetes management. Results indicated that 66.25% of participants receiving TA feedback decreased their A1C levels below 7. Those who improved reported less difficulty with intimacy and trends toward higher levels of personality functioning and lower levels of interpersonal detachment. Results suggest that providing TA feedback is worthy of further investigation for considering its therapeutic effects in helping patients to manage Type 2 diabetes.

通过人格评估加强糖尿病管理：试点研究。

本研究的目的是评估治疗评估（therapeutic assessment）作为一种以降低 A1C 水平为目标的简短干预措施的效用，并评估 2 型糖尿病患者样本的人格功能水平和 DSM-5 人格障碍替代模型中描述的广泛特质领域及其与基线和随访时 A1C 水平的关系。参与者（n = 99）是从一家初级保健诊所招募的，他们就自己的人格功能和病态人格特征可能如何影响糖尿病管理提供了反馈意见。结果表明，66.25% 接受 TA 反馈的参与者将 A1C 水平降至 7 以下。那些有所改善的人报告说，他们在亲密关系方面遇到的困难减少了，而且人格功能水平呈上升趋势，人际疏离程度降低。结果表明，提供 TA 反馈值得进一步研究，以考虑其在帮助患者控制 2 型糖尿病方面的治疗效果。
